Hidden Track 2

無 邪 無 怨

Ketchup , one man band , 一 個 25 歲 香 港 男 仔 , graphic designer , 喜 歡 畫 畫 , 喜 歡 Beatles , 自 作 自 唱 自 彈 自 製 , 歌 曲 都 是 在 家 中 錄 製 , 音 色 上 可 能 有 點 粗 糙 , 但 無 損 音 樂 本 身 的 吸 引 。 旋 律 簡 單 直 接 易 上 口 , 流 行 度 高 , 編 曲 不 賣 弄 花 巧 , 感 覺 率 直 , 如 「 My Cup Of Tea 」 的 那 種 無 邪 無 怨 的 純 真 , 叫 人 心 動 。

歌 曲 內 容 都 是 描 寫 一 些 年 青 人 的 苦 樂 事 , 說 生 活 、 講 理 想 、 談 愛 情 , 信 息 正 面 積 極 , 並 不 強 說 愁 , 當 中 有 火 車 邂 逅 「 KCR Luv 」 ; band 仔 心 聲 「 Garage Band 」 ; 原 以 為 歌 頌 Jonny Lennon , 實 則 羨 慕 / 妒 忌 人 o地 有 個 Yoko ......「 Where Is my Yoko? 」 ; 自 喻 花 草 , 比 喻 討 厭 生 長 在 溫 室 「 Let Me Grow in Wild 」 ; 憧 憬 35 歲 就 退 休 「 Retire At 35 」 , 歌 詞 夠 生 活 化 時 , 又 天 馬 行 空 , 想 像 力 豐 富 。

音 樂 熱 誠 十 足 , 創 作 有 水 準 , 歌 唱 也 恰 到 好 處 , 問 題 只 是 沒 有 大 唱 片 公 司 back-up , 宣 傳 欠 奉 , 單 靠 一 間 電 台 , 實 在 不 夠 。

特 別 留 意 第 二 首 hidden track , 原 以 為 是 誰 個 女 聲 唱 得 如 此 raw 、 如 此 奔 放 , 後 來 經 「 高 人 」 指 點 才 知 道 原 來 都 是 ketchup 自 己 本 人 , 只 是 用 機 器 把 聲 線 轉 key , 有 趣 !

cut through that that crowded morning train
cannot get a grip on moving land
I cannot mention what's the month or day
the one i expect why she always comes late

why don't ask me what you wanna know
why don't tell me where you wanna go
i have a seat for you to sit next to me
or may be just stand closer anyway

and over take the rest of the day

patient effort don't make any success
the pros and cons that you will never know
she skip the way out and sit next to me
and almost fell asleep on my left cheek

why don't ask me what you wanna know
why don't tell me where you wanna go
i have a seat for you to sit next to me
or may be just stand closer anyway

please don't ask me what is going on
laid down on me oh may be on my knee
don't wake her up and please don't disturb me
everybody stay away from me

i hope that trains would have a jam
but trains would never have a jam

3. garage band written by mike t. & ketchup
guitars by ketchup
bass guitar by sing
drums by rock

i live at alley end my neighbour wasn't too bad
i undercovered by the moon & stars

i form a garage band amuse my friends with blind jam
and playing heavy music to crash the land

like the lonesome flies with broken wings
we're undercovered by the saint

sing like a rock & roll star as loud as you can
form a rock & roll band perhaps you can

i form a garage band amuse my friends with blind jam
and playing heavy music to crash the land

echos never end like neighbourhood dog's barking
slap & strum guitar is what you can

like the lonesome flies with broken wings
we're undercovered by the saint

sing like a rock & roll star as loud as you can
form a rock & roll band as soon as you can

cause i'm not a rock & roll star
i scare to die
no guts to suicide i don't want to die

that's something I reminded everytime I make you cry

but where is my yoko?
where is my yoko?
it's hard to walk alone you know

manytimes i've been alone
and manytimes i've cried
you're the part of my life
just let me know where to go

but where is my yoko?
where is my yoko?
it's hard to walk alone
the long and winding road you know

but where is my yoko?
where is my yoko?
it's hard to walk alone
the long and winding road

where is my yoko?

i grow in the perfect pot
you're so kind you're so fine

you kissed me every morning called me darling
you gave me sunshine you made me warm
you let me have a perfect life
but i don't want even more

just let me grow in wild even i get dry
i can feel the earth is wide
just let me go inside

it's 10 a.m. a silent morning
birds singing breeze blowing
sweet-smelling in the air
i wanna talk don't ever stop

you kissed me every day you called me darling
you gave me water you made me strong
you gave me a perfect life
but i don't want even more
i don't want even more

just let me grow in wild even i get dry
i can feel the earth is wide
just let me go inside

just let me blow in wild even i get dry
o let me try don't ask me why

just let me grow in wild
just let me hide inside

i always write songs for you
I wanna tell you the truth
will all this love I've to give you
you know what I'm gonna do?

oh little darling

hey come on lend me your ears
just hear and don't disagree
even though I'm a freaker
let me sing out of key

but you didn't sense it
i dedicate to you

just give me a drink
to help my courage to sustain
no longer whisper in the rain
it's so amazing to speak out everything

if I feel cold
won't you hold my back on the road?
no matter where you come and go
just keep believing you're my everything

even though I'm drunk
please believe that you're my everything

8. my cup of tea
written by ketchup
guitars and vox by ketchup
recorder by carl "the freak" wong

since i hesr your rumours
on-and-off those foolish papers
you're the side-cast of 'hanky-panky' films
all the things just screwed up

don't you know oh my true love
you're the star i'm dust
well i guess you ain't that tough
thus star is not my cup of tea

once i see you baby
driving high in black mercedes-benz
people start to gossip on you
smells like top-class cocaine

don't you know oh my true love
you're the star i'm dust
well i guess you ain't that tough
am i still your cup of tea

cut the crap oh that's enough
don't you know she's my love
hey wait oh my sweet heart
am i still your cup of tea

don't you know oh my true love
hey you're the star i'm dust
hey wait oh my sweet heart
am i still your cup of tea
am i still your cup of tea

i'd like to be under the sea
like flying in the wind
i won't be cold below the storm
in the sea just you and me
you and me

i'd like to be under the sea
like another world
beautiful scene
i won't be lost below the storm
cause your hand just holding me
so close to me

no one there to tell us what to do
i'd like to be under the sea
knowing we're happy and we're safe
we would be happy
you and me

i'd like to be under the sea
like another world
beautiful scene

no one there to tell us what to do
i'd like to be under the sea
knowing we're happy and we're safe
we would be happy
you and me......

written by ketchup
guitars by ketchup
bass guitar and drums by chinese

everyday i wake up with the sunshine
i hear the birds singing in the sky
i turn around then fall in the dark side
i ain't see nothing with open eyes

i wanna retire at 35
don't have to work without sunshine

everyday i wake up with my wife
i really wanna kiss her day and night
i wanna make a trip to mountain high
or just want to walk along sea-side

i wanna retire at 35
don't have to work without sunshine
just wanna retire at 35
don't have to work for the rest of my life

i wanna fly and get high
i should try until i die

i wanna retire at 35
don't have to work without sunshine
just wanna retire at 35
don't have to work for the rest of my life

just let me re-live at 35
